Awesome app, however on the Samsung galaxy s4 some of the pics do not auto resize to scale of phone. Hopefully in the future this will be an added feature. BTW what is the optimum scale or dpi that you have designed this app around? The concept is remarkable. Wonder why no one thought of this before. You could pretty much use this app for any picture hosting website correct? Is it ok to use this as a base for pics from another website with credit given and a link to your other apps included?

Working flawlessly on my LG G2 running CM10.2. I noticed daydream has a gesture to get the image info, it would be nice to have the ability to get the info for the current background or favorite it via the live wallpaper.
[Android Apps and Games] NicholasQ:
If you would have read the OP, you would have seen this:

"Due to 500px's API usage conditions, the application cannot cache images for longer than 24 hours. As such, if you are not connected to Wi-Fi while either charging or having a near-full battery for more than a day, the application will run out of images to display"

I am fairly sure that "pausing" the pic would count as caching. And if you paused it for 24 hours, you have gone against 500px's terms.
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Because Android 4.0 has been out for over two years now, and accounts for more than 70% of the market. And the newer the API level, the more apps people download, so that makes pre-4.0 even less of a potential app userbase.

Support pre-4.0 is a drag, requires extra testing, and I don't have enough incentive to do it for this app. Not to mention that the memory management on 2.x (I'm not counting 3.x here) is quite terrible and makes it very difficult for apps to use high-resolution imagery without jumping through a lot of hoops.

Having problems changing categories.

I clear cache after making changes, am on wifi, charged battery.

I set the update interval to 30 seconds and clear cache, but I keep getting the same images no matter what category I choose.

The instructions are straightforward enough, so hoping I'm not missing something? :)
[Android Apps and Games] garlonnl:
Great job, 500px has some beautiful photographs. Would it be possible to change the wallpaper via an app running in the background instead of a live wallpaper? This would probably fix the parallax slowness since you are using the Android defaults, but what are the drawbacks?

Why the app shows month old wallpapers?
[Android Apps and Games] rczrider:
Love the app, but it doesn't work consistently on my Axon 7 running MM. It seems to work fine for a couple of days, but it will eventually stop displaying wallpaper and just show a black background. I can't get it back without clearing data, opening the app, and running setup again.

Other folks have mentioned the same behavior and attributed it to locking, but I don't seem to have that issue in particular. It survives locks and unlocks for days. Something causes it to break, though, and I haven't been able to identify what it is.
[Android Apps and Games] MrPez:
I've used this app for ages and really like it, but my galaxy S6 just got some update (a Samsung one, can't see any details) and now it only works on the home screen. Can't get it to work on the lock screen.

I would undo the update if I knew how!

I use this at work and would like to block the nude pics. I have nude and nsfw both unchecked and yet full frontal nudes keep showing up. I'm no prude but this is embarrassing. Any way to fix this?
[Android Apps and Games] jayshocka:
If you clear the cache and history shows clear any previous images
[Android Apps and Games] rcobourn:
The accuracy of the tagging of the original source is outside the control of the app. Because anyone can upload picts, you can't rule out mistakes. Personally I don't mind the nudes but if we could avoid the occasional weiner that would be great.
[Android Apps and Games] aiiee:

Kingroot

I have 500 Firepaper installed on 3 Android devices. All 3 are rooted, but the two that I rooted via King root won't allow me to setup the wallpaper using the app. I never get the screen that pops up saying set wallpaper and when I go in and try to select the app in settings it says it isn't installed. I am unable to know if it is the King root application stepping on it as both of the devices that are rooted by King root are running 5.1.1 and the one that is rooted manually and has SU on it is running 7.0. So, I am unable to know if it has something to do with the 5.1.1 or more likely has a conflict with the King root permission yet this app doesn't need root so I am even more confused. Has anyone else had this issue? If so, how did you fix it?

Hello all :)

And many thanks to ChainFire :good:

Just 1 question: on LG devices, its possible to enable the scrolling feature with an animated wallpaper (from 500 Firepaper) ? I purpose that its depend of the launcher but could also come from the app maybe ?

Thanks in advance.

Daydream picture source?

Hi,

I love 500 firepaper! thanks for the app!

I just changed my phone for a Huawei Honor 8 (a beast!) and every time I try to configure daydream got this screen, please watch attached image.

How can I setup daydream correctly?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] jayshocka:
If those options are in the phone settings you might have better responses in a phone specific thread
[Android Apps and Games] mesc2345:
Yes, my phone is asking me for the location of the pictures, but there is no album I can point to. I understand the app doesn't allow an album because it is against 500px policy, but in that case what can I do?
[Android Apps and Games] jayshocka:
Ah! Not sure but there is a day dream feature in the 500 app it self I have never tried it
[Android Apps and Games] mesc2345:
Yes, that's the one I'm using.

When I enable daydream in 500 Firepaper it takes me to the config menu on the phone, watch the screenshot image I updated last time... that's the reason why I'm asking for help.

TY!

Hey guys after installing latest 7.1.1 on Axon 7 500 firepaper doesn't work at all.

I've tried and previous 2.70 and nothing.

Never had issues until now with several device.

When pressing open wallpaper configuration simple doesn't response at all so I can't set any kind background image.

Is there anything else I can do since this is my favourite app latest years.

Thanks.

Reboot to recovery wipe cache and dalvik than boot up uninstall the app and install it back than try

Why does this app shows month old wallpapers?
[Android Apps and Games] paatha13:
I've already tried this and didn't work.

I even tried hard reset and setup as new my device and not helped at all.

Seems some king incompatibility between latest software version from ZTE and specific app. :mad::(

I've already open thread describing with details the all problem and only solution was downgrade to 6.0.1.

https://xdaforums.com/axon-7/help/problem-500firepaper-app-a2017g-7-1-1-t3586864

Somehow ZTE screw up with latest software version and there's incompatibility with 500 FirePaper.
[Android Apps and Games] An Droid:
FWIW, I've got it running on my Axon 7 with 7.1.1 (B19) without any issue.

Really really strange behavior.

First time meeting such bizarre bug with any kind app so far.

Ok - so we're running different devices and you have the latest (patched) 7.1.1 rom. I'll see what happens once ZTE releases the fixed 7.1.1 rom for the A2017U...

Hi [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION]

I have the pro version of 2.71 (which is available in play store)

The app stopped loading pictures for last few days. Are you aware of any issue ?

Tried all that I could, but the pictures aren't loading. Primarily testing with LTE, keeping the WiFi only option off of course.

Happened on a third device yesterday evening.

Temporarily switched to another wallpaper, force stopped the app, cleared the app cache under app settings, reloaded the app and cleared image cache and history and then re-set it as the wallpaper. Waited a bit on Wi-Fi and it eventually loaded new images.

Working again on all my devices.

[Android Apps and Games] sohebq:

[Android Apps and Games] Loader009:
I actually see three different things which might be the reasons...

1. 500px have serverproblems

2. API / structure has changed

3. 500 Firepapers API key has been blocked

I think it is either 1 or 2.

I see that it tries to download something, the downloadspeed goes up a few times, like it downloads something but then stops or the download is corrupt. But I haven't found anything in logcat, no timeout or anything else which might be helpful.

I guess this is the time when we say goodbye to this app, as Chainfire stated that he won't develop this app anymore... (well, maybe he will take a look and find with some luck some structural changes which are easy to implement.)
[Android Apps and Games] andynx1:

ive been using this on my nexus player since last february and it was unfortunate to see it stop working and more so to see the problem is widespread...

if he is indeed not going to give this any more attention hopefully its just a temporary problem on the 500px side of things.

I stopped using this app and I test it from time to time (live wallpaper preview) but it never downloads a pic.
[Android Apps and Games] tristanstewart:
im not able to make much sense of it, but it seems that the get_photos piece of the 500px api changed (according to github) about a month ago.

so we may be screwed unless someone that wants/knows how to update this comes along.

[Android Apps and Games] squiddog:
There is a checkbox to uncheck "Show filtered shape overlay". Once I unchecked it, it removed the weird shape over the top of the photo once the picture changed again.

I agree its no 500 Firepaper, but better than nothing.
